[quote=Anonymous]Kids should do stuff they are interested in doing. 14 year olds very often don’t have specific interests yet absent a sport or instrument or dance that they will stick with through high school and beyond. So - have some talks about what may be interesting to do in high school. You want school stuff because of the social connections. As anyone who has had kids apply to college can tell you - the big schools only care about gpa and test scores. The small schools care about $ and also what your kid does. BUT no high prestige school cares about kids who are jacks of all trades. The are looking for kids who focus on one or maybe two major things so their enticing class can be interesting and diverse.
